No one would fully accept sothing that deliberately approaches them; on the contrary, the first reaction is resistance or suspicion.
Humans! They have always been peculiar creatures!
Only when they actively choose to approach sothing do they feel completely at ease, and even develop a sense of control, as if everything were under their control!
Gu Tong utilized this psychological loophole in humans, seemingly gaining so of Gong Chenli’s trust.
"Sir is not an ordinary person, lacks nothing, but following him is too dangerous!"
Gu Tong remained neither arrogant nor humble, stated the truth outright!
The organization’s assigned task was to investigate the other party’s motives, including the matter of hiring a bodyguard.
Previously, Gu Tong had analyzed and combined with Gong Chenli’s actual situation, she could judge that he didn’t really need her.
Even the true reason for hiring her needs to be reconsidered!
The worst outco is that he knows soone is targeting him, so he’s using this plan to lure them out.
This is the worst outco and also what Gu Tong least wants to see.
"You really are a smart person!"
Gong Chenli chuckled softly, the interest in his eyes growing more intense, an emotion he only revealed toward a beloved toy.
Gu Tong lowered her head, not responding. She didn’t know how to respond, nor whether she should...
Gong Chenli wasn’t angered by her deanor; instead, he picked up a teacup and calmly said, "I’m really considering letting you replace Mo Ruoqing’s position now!"
These words hit the ground, sending ripples through Gu Tong’s heart like a raging storm. She looked up in surprise at Gong Chenli, her mouth slightly open, speechless for a long ti...
It was a while before she said, "Sir’s one promotion almost cost my life. If you really want to groom , I can’t imagine what chaos would ensue."
"What are you afraid of? Chaos!" Gong Chenli’s words were a double entendre: on one hand hinting that Gu Tong had solutions, and on the other implying that she had a powerful backer now!
If Gong Chenli does let Gu Tong replace Mo Ruoqing, it would be under his direct promotion. By then, anyone wanting to stir up trouble would indeed need his consent.
A conversation with idle chit-chat, no significant topics.
In just a few short minutes, Gong Chenli surprisingly elevated her to a high position.
Gu Tong had gained a basic understanding of Gong Chenli’s boldness!
However, she also understood that this wasn’t Gong Chenli’s mistake; it was a misguided judgnt from his sharp eyes.
The notion of being too clever for one’s good explains it all...
"Does Sir have any plans for ?"
Gu Tong once again avoided the cue, tossing out a question that wasn’t challenging.
Jokes aside, real plans required separate consideration.
Gong Chenli took a sip of tea, remaining silent for a while, as if savoring the fragrance in his mouth ―
"A week from now, my nephew returns from abroad. He has a peculiar temperant and high standards, and I couldn’t find anyone suitable to serve him."
"I found you to be quite presentable, fitting my nephew’s taste, so I brought you back. For the next few days, follow around, and if you’re suitable, go serve him."
Gong Chenli leisurely said these words, causing Gu Xiaotong to tremble...
She now wished she could return to the Academy and smack Lan Siming’s face with a shoe sole,
The person was choosing a bride for his nephew, yet he had the audacity to call it selecting a bodyguard?????
Bah, looking for a bodyguard? Look for your sister!
